Will Isle of Man follow UK approach?
The Council of Ministers is set to receive information this week about vaccinating high risk children.
The issue was raised in Tynwald yesterday (20 July) by MLC Tanya August-Hanson:
The UK government has confirmed clinically vulnerable children – and those living with high risk adults – will be offered the Pfizer vaccine.
Chief Minister Howard Quayle said more information, on whether the Isle of Man will follow suit, is expected soon:
